This has been brought up so many times. I am amazed people still have something else to add in this seemingly endless debate. Personally, I don't.

It is Pete, not Wilson. It's no mystery why Peyton Manning didn't want to sign here.

43 to 8.
Old Man Manning would have been a Piss Poor Quarterback....He was a Statue; Without a shred of doubt, Wilson with Marshawn Lynch was a WAAAAAAY better option.
Don't believe me?, how come the Denver Bronco's didn't just keep on winning Year After Year?...He was a "One Trick Pony", or should I say a "One Trick Phony"
So what are you trying to say here exactly? I was commenting on Pete's offense, not on the merits of Manning as a QB nor was I comparing him to Wilson. Just an FYI, Manning had a winning record each one of his seasons as the Broncos QB, and appeared in two SuperBowls. Same as the Pete Carroll Seahawks. In fact his winrate was better than the Seahawks in those years. He went 13-3, 13,3, 12-4 and 7-2 as starting QB for the Broncos. I'm very confused at the point you're trying to make.

Peyton Manning didn't want to come to the Seahawks, in fact he flat out refused Carroll. That is what I'm talking about, not Russell Wilson vs. Peyton Manning, not the Seahawks vs. Broncos.

What are you trying to say? Sure he didnt talk to Seattle but we were coming off back to back 7-9 seasons. Saying he refused Carroll because of "Petes offense" is freelancing at best. As you said, he never met with Carroll so he wouldnt have any idea what the offense would or wouldnt be.

Wilson is pretty damn good but the problems lie deeper than Wilson.

Wilson masks the inabilities and deficiencies of incompetent coaching.

How many times have we seen Wilson win games that he just makes magic happens?

It shouldn’t come down to that.

But Wilson saves Carroll from improving or making any adjustments.

This season should prove that if you did not see it in previous years.

More like are the Seahawks going to let Russ prove it. I would rather the Seahawks go out guns blazing with Russ throwing 50 passes in a game then trying to rely on some 4th string running back to
carry any load.

He has already proven it

#6 in yards
7 YPA
3 TDs
2nd in td/int
7 QBR
5 Qb rating
2 DYAR
5 DVOA

Behind
25th ranked pass blocking oline
in a run first system

He has already proven it.

You missed what I was saying. I agree he is elite. I want the coaches to give us a game plan that lets him be. That cardinals game plan was an offensive dumpster fire.

Well actual the first series was what they should be doing all the time, changing tempos, run and pass mix, layered pass routes. So of course they stopped doing it.

What’s stupid is paying any mind to this benchwarmer OP’er. What an ignoramus. Not worth the pixels it is displayed on.

This thread is just asinine. Yes, lets blame the best player on our team and arguably one of the best in the league at his position.

There are Eagles fans defending Carson Wentz hardcore. Then you have pathetic posts like this that jump at the first chance to bash Russ. As if he has to have a perfect season.

If Carson Wentz had the career Russ has had, no way Eagles fans would conveniently bash their QB the way some fans on here jump at the chance to tear him down. Truly pathetic, needs to play all world to get a “good job Russ” from some people. Unbelievable

Russ' cap hit this year is about $26.3M, going up to $31M next year and topping out at $37M for 2023:

His cap hit makes up about 13.6 percent of SEA's 2019 cap:

https://overthecap.com/salary-cap/seattle-seahawks/

Bwags and Duane Brown are the only others with over a $10M cap hit. Most others are on rookie deals or short-term ones. We'll probably lose most to free agency.
Those are sick numbers :pukeface:
People want a great OL..Look at Dallas the best line in the NFL.
They paid the best RB in the NFL.
They paid a couple of guys on defense big money.
They clearly cannot afford Cooper who is elite?Ha Ha
They are having trouble figuring out how to pay DAK.
The Cowboys record at best this year?8-8

My point being you can try to fool yourself with the cap
but you'll get holes.
We can get this elite line and have nothing else.We
can be 8-8 at best but yeah a John might be happy
with an elite QB but no playoffs makes a me unhappy.

Show me any starting QB that succeeds with no pass protection. Maybe the OP would have prefered we get Luck or RG3 in 2012?

Well said, Seymour.

Russell Wilson's last 5 season's

2015-2019

79 Games | 50-28-1

153 TDs
42 INTs
7.9 YPA
102.6 Passer Rating (107.3 in 2019 alone)

to go along with being a runner, 2087 rush yards, & 8 TDs

PFF Offensive line rank in that span: (30, 32, 27, 19, 31)

On a team that is built to run the ball, and play defense. Not built around him. Performing at this level you should be extremely impressed, because no one in the league is doing what Wilson is doing behind wretched offensive lines.


Drew Brees

72 Games | 45-27

148 TDs
43 INTs
7.9 YPA

106.4 Passer Rating

PFF Offensive line rank: (13, 12, 9, 11, 4)

On a team that is built around him, with a top playcaller, an elite offensive line, with weapons galore.


What games have you been watching the last 5 years?

But, but, but.....Tical has never seen so many excuses. Never mind your facts Fade.

Let's see:

Missing 3 o-linemen
Missing top 3 running backs, to the point that we had to sign our mediocre backup from 5 years ago.
Top receiver is still injured, missing top TE, Josh Gordon got suspended. He's throwing meaningful targets to guys like Jacob Hollister, David Moore, and Malik Turner.
Coach may or may not be senile.
Defense is nonexistent

Yeah that's gonna wear down any quarterback
